??? Is it true as I have heard and read that Organic Almonds are heated up to 200 degrees before arriving at the store… And Conventional are Sprayed with Pesticides???? Very disturbing… Have stopped eating one of my favorite snacks Organic Almonds and my favorite Organic Almond Butter… Also have heard that Almonds can effect the Thyroid>>> … I do luv Sprouted Walnuts… And stopped Sprouted Almonds that I like better than Organic… Not sure how they are treated….
*** Your Thoughts…
Many Thanks,
Ronni

Exact methods of production will usually vary a bit based on different brands and local laws. If you want to be sure about the details, I’d recommend contacting your supplier directly to clear things up.

As for almonds and the thyroid, they should not have any negative effect (in fact, they could be beneficial due to the high levels of magnesium) unless you have an autoimmune disease like Hashimoto’s, in which case they could cause some reactions. As always, I recommend meeting with a licensed health practitioner if you have specific, serious health concerns.
